Instruction for use Refridgerator
2
The user instructions apply to several models, for this
reason there may be some differences in the details
given, according to the type of the appliance..
1 Protecting the environment / advice for disposal
Packing
serves to protect the appliance during transportation and
recyclable materials have been used for packaging.
Corrugated board/cardboard (mainly from waste paper).
- shaped parts in PS (foamed CFC- free polystyrene)
- foils and bags in PE (polyethylene)
- strapping tapes in PP (polypropylene)
- Please hand over all packaging to the nearest official
collection point, so that all the different materials can
be re-used or recycled as far as possible and any
illegal depositing of such materials is thus avoided
2 Deciding where to locate your appliance
In order to avoid any damage or injury to persons or
things, the appliance should be unpacked by two people
and placed in the chosen location
Before positioning it, check
that your new appliance
has no visible outer damage.
On no account
should you start up your appliance if it is
damaged.
Check the appliance carefully for:
Ŷ
Damage to the packaging
which might indicate that
appliance has been mishandled during
transportation
Ŷ
Damage to the outer casing
Ŷ
Any visible damage to the cable / plug
If in any doubt
let the customer service department
check the appliance.
It must at all costs be avoided,
that any environmentally
damaging refrigerant leaks out by starting up the
appliance.
3 Installing your appliance
a)
Unpack the fridge / freezer.
b) In order not to unnecessarily waste raw materials, the
handles (requiring smaller packaging) have not been
mounted onto the separate parts of the appliance.Mount
the door handles and at the same time anyother
enclosed parts according to the relevant
instructions enclosed separately.
c)
Remove any objects from inside the appliance
d)
Carefully remove all film and adhesive tape from the casing
from the door
e) Remove any polystyrene pieces from around the
compressor (if present).
f)
Remove all documents and accessories from inside the
appliance.
g) Clean the inside of the appliance with
lukewarm water and vinegar and dry it thoroughly with
a soft cloth.
Do not use washing liquids, sharp or abrasive
household products or any other cleaning agents
containing soda.
Ŷ
Make sure that the pipes for the circulation of the
refrigerant are not damaged in any way during
installation of the appliance.
Ŷ
The appliance must only be used for the purpose for
which it is intended.
Ŷ
The appliance. must be placed on a firm, level
surface
. This is the only way to ensure that the
refrigerant can circulate freely and thus ensure that
your appliance will work effciently.
Ŷ
If possible, place your appliance in a cool, well
aired, dry room.
Ŷ
Do not place your appliance in direct sunlight, nor in a
room at high temperature.
Ŷ
Do not place your appliance in the vicinity of any
sources of direct heat such as heating, ovens, cooking
stove etc. (This would mean the compressor would
have to work harder and as a result the power
consumption would be considerably higher).
If installation near a direct heat source cannot be
avoided, we recommend fitting a suitable insulation plate
between the appliance and the heat source (do not use
asbestos), or at least the following minimum distances
must be observed: .
Ŷ
from a gas or electric cooker
30cm
Ŷ
from a radiator or oven etc
30 cm
Ŷ
from another refrigerating appliance
30 cm
Do not place any appliances, such as microwaves,
toasters etc. which give off heat on the appliance
Never obstruct the ventilation grille.
Always pull out the plug itself and never pull the cable
when cutting the appliance off from the mains supply.
WARNING !
Leave the appliance standing in its final position for
at least 2 hours before switching it on, so that the
circulation of the refrigerant stabilises and no
operating problems occur.
Before connecting up the appliance, make sure that it
is absolutely dry inside - especially in the corners..
Danger warnings
Depending on its composition, the refrigerant can be
easily inflammable. The refrigerant circuit has been
hermetically sealed and has been tested many times for
possible leaks.
Any inexpert interference might well create a fire hazard.
Make sure nothing mechanically effects the circulation of
the refrigerant, nor, in particular, the accessible parts
around the compressor..
Only expert professional personnel should intervene
on the refrigerating system.
